This session would give participants time, space, and support to really dig deep into the new math curriculum. Last year, we focused on the changes in the TEKS in order to be prepared for those changes this year. Now that teachers have become more comfortable with the changes in the TEKS, it is time to focus on the instruction. One key theme seen throughout the new TEKS is the change in the academic vocabulary to encourage deeper understanding of mathematical concepts using the new process standards. The first portion of this session will focus on a large group discussion covering the 1st semester and a blueprint to guide instructional discussions within teams. The second portion will be team specific where teachers will work with their academic team specifically to begin reworking lessons from the first semester that need more depth or creating deeper lessons for the remainder of this school year.
